It means a lot to me to have found Nonna Mia. I have family just outside of Cosenza, but living in the U.S. has made our family distant from the culture. Nonna Mia is restoring a piece of my heart with her recipes and videos
Grazie mille Kris. It means a lot to me that you watched my video. It is such a small world. My village is Belsito, just 25 minutes from Cosenza, opposite Rogliano. Where is your town? How long have you been in the US? We are just north of Toronto - now since 1958! Mio Dio come vola il tempo. Grande abbraccio e bacio ... xx
Isn’t it wonderful to come together like this in this presently crazy world? It’s heartwarming sharing our ancestry, cultural and regional traditions-brings me to happy tears-I left Calabria as a child, but the sweet memories are locked away in my heart forever-miss my nonni!!--and all 40 cousins-yes, there were forty of us ( from both sides) Now, we are spread all around the globe, and some have passed🙏❤️🇮🇹🙋♀️.
This woman is a treasure!🥰 My family is also from just outside Cozenza and immigrated to Canada so nonna reminds me of my nonna! Thank you for sharing your recipes!
My family is from Rende, Cosenza. In the past I helped my late mother in law make them. They are so delicious. You inspire me to make them for Christmas.
My Nonna made these every year at Christmas and sent them out to all of us. I have her recipe and even her washboard that she used to form the cookies but I didn’t know how to put them all together so, I’m so glad I found Nonna Mia!
my family is from San Giovanni en Fiore. Each year my Nunnie & Aunts would always send seasonal boxes.These cookies were one of my favorites. Arrived in a jar with honey.
I want to personally thank-you for your amazing tutorial. When I was a child, my Bisnonna would make these every year at Christmas and would give each of us a large jar. She passed at 99 years of age when I was 11 years old, I am now 54. Nobody in my family ever made them again, thus the tradition fell away. A few months ago, I was going through one of my Nonni's old cook books and came across Bisnonna's recipe but there were no instructions. So I decided this year to bring back that tradition, I watched your video and for the past 2 days I've been making them!!!! I have her turdilli board that my Bisnonno made, as well. Today my Dad came over to pick up all the jars and distribute them to members of my family...thus, the tradition is reborn and the feedback I've received is that they taste exactly like hers used to. I looked at many tutorials but everyone was using food processors, Bisnonna never did, everything was always done by hand and as a result of your video, that's exactly how I did....old school, aka, the right way ;) Thank-you Nonna (if I may call you that), you helped me bring back something that I loved as a child, that my family loved and it feels like she's here with us again. I am forever grateful to you. Sending you love, light and wishing you and your family a very Happy and Safe Christmas 🎄 ❤
Gianna, you brought a tears to my eyes. I will cherish this comment more than you can know. God bless you and your family! Buon Natale a voi tutti!!! 🥰 By the way, which country / city do you live in?
@@nonnamia7890 Hi Nonna Mia!!! It's so lovely to speak with you :) I live in Vancouver, Canada. Where do you live? Thank-you for your warm sentiments. Lots of Love Nonna ❤
@@BlackSheep830 Buonasera bella. Sei Canadese! Us too - we are from Ontario; about an hour north of Toronto. We are from Calabria, in a small town near Cosenza and came to Canada in 1958. How about your Bisnonna?
Mine also, I called her grandmom, she made these every Christmas for me especially they are my favorite, but non of her recipes were written down, I just remember there was red wine, she would make the flour well, mix the dough, cut them and fry them, then came the honey.I miss her terribly, so Grazie for giving me back my beloved cookies.
My grandmother used to make those cookies with honey and we would have it with black coffee, you are making me so happy with this recipe I found from you!! You are such a bright sunshine for my day with your beautiful smile, thank you Nonna for being here for us!!😊
Nona mia my family is Cslabrese too. My mother Madd turfillj also with Moscato wine and sometimes with marsala. They're amazing and a wonderful trsdion fir Christmas. I gave wonderful memories of my nona and mom in the kitchen making turdilli and scalilli and pita pigliata. Your great and God bless you!!
Turdili are the best. We used to make them every Christmas, but since Covid, we make them more frequently ... why not, right!? Why wait for Christmas. These are quite easy to make if you get a craving! A presto caro!! xo
Thank you for posting this video, Nonna Mia! My nonna used to make these very Christmas with my Zia and I’ve been looking for a recipe. My family is from Cosenza as well. Buon natale!
I amazed when I see this woman she looks like a combo of my grandmother and my great aunt.I wish I could send you a picture.. you’d be amazed. They were born in a small town near Cosenza called Carolei. My Nonna made those every Christmissmand we called them Turdiddi. Maybe we’re related our family name is Broccoli. Your town is 35 mins away(18 miles ) from my grandmothers birthplace in Carolei.
Buon giorno Antonio … isn’t that incredible. This is Josie, her daughter. I’m currently in Cosenza. You can email us at nonnamiarecipes@gmail.com. We can chat more there. 🥰
Thank you very much for this recipe. An old friend of my father used to make them but with red wine and I loved them so finally finding this recipe explained in such a nice way was amazing. I'll try to make them. Thanks again and I send you a warm hello from Argentina.
My Dad was from Cosenza (Rende) and it means so much to see how to make these (in English even!) Since, quando leggo nel Italiano Sono molto lentemente!!!!! Grazie mille from a hungry Canadian ♥️
Yes, you have a point - it is hard to stop. I used to make them bigger. Now I make them bite size - it kind of helps. They fry up faster, and I feel less guilty having a smaller one (or two, or three)... xx
Thankyou for sharing one of my favourite recipes...my late father was from Cosenza and his sister used to make these every Easter and Christmas until she couldn’t use her hands any longer due to arthritis pain but no body could ever make them like she did......some were dipped in honey with sprinkles and some were glazed ❤️🎄
That's a wonderful memory bella - Gagliardi - we have close friends here in Orilia Ontario with that same name. They too are from Belsito CS. Sending you much love this Christmas Day! xx
@@nonnamia7890 My late Father had cousins in Ontario but I’m not sure where exactly ... it could be them lol and also some in Edmonton Alberta that moved to Cosenza in the 80s and are still there....My Father absolutely loved Canada and I hope to visit Canada and Alaska in the next few years.Merry Christmas 🎄 🇨🇦❤️
So sweet of you - thanks so much Debbie! And thank you for subscribing to my channel and for writing me. It means a lot. I'm so excited that Spring is here!! Enjoy your weekend bella.
From where in Cosenza? I was born in Belmonte Calabro-the Bruno/Pellegrino families. Sono nata a Belmonte. E lei, signora? Mia nonna e mia madre facevano i turdilli ogni natale. Buone Feste!!
Wow …my mom was from Carolei, Cosenza and she had the same Cestino ( basket) to make turdidi and Scalidde…as a matter of fact Nonna could pass for one of our relatives she looks like one of my Nonna’s Sisters. Very nice show …thank you Antonio Broccoli
My mom was from Carolei, prov di Cosenza we have names like Broccoli, Principe, Porco ( we changed it to Porto for obvious reasons) , Bastone, Reda in our family who knows maybe we are related…thanks
@@nonnamia7890 Si cara Nonna, li farò sicuramente col tuo metodo. Ora, qui in Italia, è ancora troppo caldo, ma appena le temperature si abbaseranno mi metterò all'opera. E così sarà più vicino anche il natale 😘
Hi Nonna Mia - I’m happy that I found this recipe - the paddle for designing the cookie, can we use the same one we do for making gnocchi? Thank you for your help
Boa tarde querida! Sou do Brasil e acabei de encontrar o seu canal. Estou adorando. Minha nona nasceu na Calábria e veio jovem para o Brasil. Ela fazia um doce no Natal a base de óleo, vinho tinto e mel, chamado de Canariculli. Não tenho a receita e tenho muita saudade, será que você a conhece? Beijos do Brasil,você é muito linda.
Bom dia linda. É tão legal da sua parte me escrever e assistir ao meu vídeo. Será que você está se referindo ao que chamo de turdili? É um biscoito de vinho. Eu uso Marsala. Alguns usam vermute. Ou vinho tinto ou vino cotto. Aqui está o meu vídeo: ua-cam.com/video/hRxl4u5Q4hk/v-deo.html Avise. Espero que você tente. Feliz Natal, querido. xox
My grandmother was from San Marco Argentano in Cosenza. She made these every year, then my mom made them. Both are gone now. I love these and the filled ones that are fried and honeyed.
Literally the cutest little nonnacheda her and my nonna would have been buddies 😂 my nonni are from laurignano near cosenza edit: oh by the way us kids called these chicken wing cookies for our entire childhood because a Canadian neighbour asked us if we were eating chicken wings 😂 it just stuck
That’s a good point - I didn’t explain that - sorry. I just put honey and a bit of water in a pot and heat on the stove and roll the turdilli in the hot honey. Same method with the maple syrup. It’s a quick process. The water makes the honey a little thinner. The glaze gives it a light coating. I think I may have demonstrated it in another video ... I’ll check and revert.
There were two other treats my husband's family brought with them from Carolei Calabria: I don't know how to spell them but sounds like "Shu-shu-me-a-dee" and "Galutti". Are you familiar with these? We try to carry on the family cooking traditions because it helps us feel connected as a family and reminds us of my dear mother-in-law who passed away almost 30 years ago.
I wish I was dear. We make scalili. Turdili. Crostoli. And a filled pastry. I’ve done videos for all of them. Sometimes names vary from town to town? Thank you for writing me. 😍
Questa è la figlia di Nonna, usa Google Translate. spero che abbia senso? Nonna inizia con un "nido" di farina sulla sua tavola. Tutto sommato, ha usato 5,5 tazze di farina (circa 4,5 tazze per il nido e una tazza aggiuntiva aggiunta nel processo). Versa 4 uova al centro del nido, 1 tazza di Marsala, 1 tazza di olio extra vergine di oliva, 1 tazza di zucchero, un pizzico di sale e 1 cucchiaio di lievito. Il Marsala è un vino liquoroso, originario della Sicilia. In alternativa si possono sostituire i vini dolci. L'olio di colza viene utilizzato per friggere e per il passaggio finale, il miele o un sostituto viene utilizzato per condirli. Nonna inizia a mescolare lentamente gli ingredienti con le mani fino a formare un impasto appiccicoso. Su una spianatoia ben spolverata, Nonna lavora l'impasto fino ad ottenere una consistenza liscia e lucida. Copre l'impasto con un canovaccio e lo lascia riposare per circa 20 minuti. Quindi, con una tecnica, simile a quella usata per fare gli gnocchi, taglia una porzione di pasta e arrotola piccoli pezzi simili a serpenti che vengono poi tagliati lunghi circa un pollice, e arrotolati lungo il retro del cesto, o qualsiasi cresta- macchina, inclusa una forchetta. Una volta che tutta la pasta è stata tagliata e arrotolata, Nonna scalda l'olio di colza (circa un pollice di profondità) e li frigge fino a doratura. E in un ultimo passaggio, Nonna riscalda il miele, aggiunge un po' d'acqua e ricopre leggermente ogni pezzo di miele. In Italia si usa spesso il miele di fichi, ma si potrebbe usare anche lo sciroppo d'acero, come da noi. Potete lasciarli solo al naturale o spolverizzare con zucchero a velo. Naturalmente, la quantità finale varia con le dimensioni dei tuoi turdilli, ma la ricetta di Nonna ne ha fatte circa 4 dozzine.
She's so cute. Nonnas make everything look easy! Nonnas are the best.
Grazie mille bella ... Buon Natale!! 😘
Nonne is the plural of nonna
Nonni is the plural of nonno. No “s”. 🥰🇮🇹

@@nonnamia7890 il tuo modo di impastare, le tue mani, mi ricordano lei, Pascualina Curia. Bello!
Can these be frozen ahead of time?
Absolutely. I freeze mine all the time. But I don't honey them. I thaw the turdili, heat the honey, roll them, and serve. I hope you enjoy them Maria!
nice, we use white vermouth instead of marsalla, and honey or fig honey, which is even better, I wish you would have shown how you apply the honey
Sorry Mario. I just hear the honey. Add a bit of water. Bring to a boil and then add in the pastry and roll them in the hot honey and plate.
Nonna, I’m going to ask my wonderful wife to make these! I’ll give her a hand of course. How exactly do you glaze them at the end?
That’s a good point - I didn’t explain that - sorry.
I just put honey and a bit of water in a pot and heat on the stove and roll the turdilli in the hot honey. Same method with the maple syrup. It’s a quick process. The water makes the honey a little thinner. The glaze gives it a light coating. I think I may have demonstrated it in another video ... I’ll check and revert.

Una volta che tutta la pasta è stata tagliata e arrotolata, Nonna scalda l'olio di colza (circa un pollice di profondità) e li frigge fino a doratura. E in un ultimo passaggio, Nonna riscalda il miele, aggiunge un po' d'acqua e ricopre leggermente ogni pezzo di miele. In Italia si usa spesso il miele di fichi, ma si potrebbe usare anche lo sciroppo d'acero, come da noi. Potete lasciarli solo al naturale o spolverizzare con zucchero a velo.
Naturalmente, la quantità finale varia con le dimensioni dei tuoi turdilli, ma la ricetta di Nonna ne ha fatte circa 4 dozzine.
Your so sweet. ❤️🇨🇦
